1. Explain the concept welding design and fabrication in manufacturing steel structure.
What should you do when you act as:
a) Welding Engineer
1) Develops welding techniques, procedures, and application of welding equipment
to problems involving fabrication of metals, utilizing knowledge of production
specifications, properties and characteristics of metals and metal alloys, and
engineering principles: Conducts research and development investigations to
develop and test new fabrication processes and procedures, improve existing or
develop new welding equipment, develop new or modify current welding methods,
techniques, and procedures, discover new patterns of welding phenomena, or to
correlate and substantiate hypotheses.
2) Prepares technical reports as result of research and development and preventive
maintenance investigations.
3) Establishes welding procedures to guide production and welding personnel
relating to specification restrictions, material processes, pre- and post-heating
requirements which involve use of complex alloys, unusual fabrication methods,
welding of critical joints, and complex postheating requirements.
4) Evaluates new developments in welding field for possible application to current
welding problems or production processes.
5) Directs and coordinates technical personnel in performing inspections to ensure
workers' compliance with established welding procedures, restrictions, and
standards; in testing welds for conformance with national code requirements; or
testing welding personnel for certification.
6) Contacts personnel of other agencies, engineering personnel, or clients to
exchange ideas, information, or offer technical advice concerning welding matters.

7) May perform experimental welding to evaluate new equipment, techniques, and
materials.
b) Welding Supervisor
1) Supervises and coordinates activities of workers engaged in welding and cutting
of products and structures, such as auto, aircraft, and ship components, pipes,
boilers, and mobile homes, applying knowledge of welding and cutting techniques,
materials, and equipment, and fabrication requirements: Analyzes work orders and
blueprints to determine need for supplies and sequence of operations required.
2) Requisitions supplies, such as weld rods, gas, flux, and fixtures.
3) Inspects work or confers with WELD INSPECTOR I and WELD INSPECTOR
II to maintain specified standards and quality.
4) Trains workers in operation of equipment.
5) May set up machines or make trial welds to make test runs and experimental
products.
6) May supervise brazing and soldering operations.
7) May supervise fitting and assembly of structural frames.
8) May supervise workers engaged in making tubing from flat steel strips by
electric-weld process and be designated Welding Supervisor, Electric-Weld Pipe
Mill.
9) Important variations include location of workers supervised, such as in-plant,
job-shop, construction site, or shipyard.
10) Performs other duties as described under SUPERVISOR Master Title.

c) Welding inspector
(1) Codes, standards and specifications: Interpretation of the intent and ensuring
the requirements of codes, standards and specifications are met.
(2) Welding procedures: Ensuring that a procedure is available, has been approved
and is being employed in production.
(3) Witnessing of welder and procedure approval tests: Witnessing the
preparation of test plates and destructive tests and verifying compliance with
appropriate standards and specifications.
(4) Welder approvals: Verifying that adequate and valid welder approvals are
available, and that only approved welders are used in production.
(5) Parent material: Verifying parent material against documentation and
markings.
(6) Welding consumables identity: Verification of correctness of welding
consumables (electrodes, filler wires, consumable inserts, gases, fluxes etc.)
(7) Pre-weld inspection: Verification that dimensions, fit-up and weld
preparations are in accordance with specifications.
(8) Preheating: Verification that any required preheat is in accordance with the
specified procedure.
(9) In-process welding inspection and surveillance: Surveillance during welding
to verify compliance with specified procedures including any preheat, interpass
temperature control and post heat requirements.
(10) Inspection and Test Plans: Assistance and agreement with the preparation of
Inspection and Test Plans (ITPs)
(11) Post-weld heat treatment: Verification, when required that post weld heat
treatment has been conducted in accordance with specification requirements.
(12) Post-weld visual inspection: Visual inspection and dimensional check of
completed weldment against specification requirements and drawings.
(13) NDT reports: The study and cognisance of NDT results on any welding work
for which the welding inspector is responsible. Where the duties of the welding
inspector include using NDT methods such as liquid penetrant, magnetic particle,

radiography or ultrasonic inspection then it is suggested that he/she obtains
certification in accordance with the related approval schemes.
(14) Reports: Evaluation of and preparation of inspection reports for the employer
or the client.
(15) Records: Maintenance of records of inspections carried out

3. Calculate the minimum fillet weld size on a welded construction as shown in the
picture below, the known shear stress (T) which is parallel to the load of 20 MPa or
N/mm2, while the load (P) which is 20000 N (2.5 Tons) with the length of each side of
the weld joint (W) is 100 mm. Use the formula: T = P/(2.w.a)
